This is moderately hilarious. That prediction was in this article from October 1st, and there he predicts not only that, but also that the markets will also react favorably if Clinton wins.

The reasoning is something like: the market has started a bull run and shows strength (technical talk) which tallies nicely with what we (fundamentally) can expect from a Trump presidency. Case closed. Except that a positive fundamental story is then also told for a Clinton presidency, which leaves the reader guessing what exactly the markets are predicting.

Good call!
